Kirsty MacColl's, "Walking Down Madison"
Misheard Lyrics:
From an uptown apartment to a night on the late train
It’s not that far.
It’s not that far.
Original Lyrics:
From an uptown apartment to a knife on the A train
It’s not that far.
It’s not that far.
Kirsty MacColl's, "Walking Down Madison"

See you give 'em your nipples, your pennies and dimes.

See you give 'em your nickels, your pennies and dimes.

Misheard Lyrics:
Walking down Madison I swear I never had a gun
No one ever shot no one
(Later)
But you can't give them what they need most of the time, oh no
(Later)
To the bat lady frozen asleep in the park
No one ever shot no one
(Later)
But you can't give them what they need most of the time, oh no
(Later)
To the bat lady frozen asleep in the park
Original Lyrics:
Walking down Madison I swear I never had a gun
No I never shot no one
(Later)
But you can't give them hope in these mercenary times, oh no
(Later)
To the bag lady frozen asleep in the park
No I never shot no one
(Later)
But you can't give them hope in these mercenary times, oh no
(Later)
To the bag lady frozen asleep in the park
